Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to a treatment method of high-sulfate organic wastewater and belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment. BACKGROUND

[0002] High-sulfate organic wastewater exists in various industries such as chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, papermaking industry, food processing industry and mining industry. The wastewater has high salt concentration and is mainly composed of sulfate, and also has a certain concentration of organic matter (COD). If the organic matter content of conventional wastewater is high, the anaerobic method is usually used for treatment and methane is recovered. However, the high-sulfate organic wastewater contains a large amount of sulfate, and under anaerobic conditions, the sulfate is reduced to S 2- ions under the action of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), the ions have strong biological toxicity and have a great inhibitory effect on microbial flora, and seriously affect the removal of organic matter. Therefore, the method generally requires that the sulfate concentration of the anaerobic reactor is less than 2000 mg / L, and the method is not applicable to high-sulfate wastewater, as disclosed in patent CN103771670A. Similarly, the high salt concentration also poses a problem for the use of the aerobic process, and the aerobic process also has aeration dead angle and local anaerobic bacteria, and when the sulfate concentration is too high, the sulfide concentration in the water body is also too high.

[0003] Under the background of increasingly strict wastewater discharge, the treatment of high-sulfate organic wastewater also faces a big problem, that is, the proper disposal of salt. At present, the salt separation technology mainly involves high-temperature evaporation crystallization, medium-temperature evaporation crystallization and cooling system, which has large energy consumption, and the material is easy to cause crystallization plugging of pipelines and equipment during the conversion between high and low temperatures. Meanwhile, the purity of the product is greatly affected by the temperature parameters and discharge parameters of each crystallizer, and the overall operation is difficult.

[0004] Membrane separation technology is a new technology that uses separation membranes as the core for separation, concentration and purification. Commonly used membrane separation technologies include ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis. The membrane pore size of the above-mentioned membranes is in the nanometer level, which is very easy to be blocked by organic matter and suspended matter, and is mainly used for domestic water purification. In wastewater treatment, it is only limited to end desalination. Electrodialysis is a new technology formed on the basis of membrane separation combined with electrochemistry. The semi-permeable membrane used in electrodialysis is an ion exchange membrane, which realizes the separation of anions and cations under the driving of an external direct current electric field. Electrodialysis has been widely used in seawater desalination, brackish water desalination and the like due to its simple operation and long service life. However, for industrial wastewater, especially high-sulfate organic wastewater, the water contains not only soluble inorganic salt but also a large amount of organic matter and hardness, which will cause pollution and scaling of the ion exchange membrane in the separation and concentration process, thereby restricting the further development of the technology.

[0023] Further, the amount of the organic solvent supplemented in step b is 0.5-1 times the amount of the organic solvent used in step a.

[0024] Further, the mass-volume concentration of the anhydrous zinc chloride in the organic solvent in step b is 15-30 mg / mL, and the volume ratio of chloromethyl methyl ether to the organic solvent is 0.5:1-2:1.

[0051] (3) In the salt separation section, the sodium sulfate prepared by the freezing crystallization method is converted from liquid phase to solid phase by cooling under the condition that the wastewater is not obviously concentrated, and at this time, sodium chloride is in a completely dissolved state in liquid phase, so that high-purity sodium sulfate decahydrate can be obtained; after the sodium sulfate is separated by freezing crystallization, the concentration of sodium sulfate in the effluent is much lower than that of sodium chloride, and the sodium sulfate is further removed by the nanofiltration unit, so that the proportion of sodium chloride in the solution is very high, which is more conducive to the salt crystallizer to obtain sodium chloride with higher purity.

[0052] (4) The freezing crystallization method for preparing sodium sulfate has a heat exchange temperature difference of only 25-30℃, which has a significant energy consumption advantage compared with the traditional heat method with a heat exchange temperature difference of 70-100℃.

[0075] use Figure 1 The process shown is for treating a wastewater with high sulfate and high organic content.

[0076] The wastewater quality is as follows: COD 1500 mg / L, sulfate 6000 mg / L, chloride concentration 3000 mg / L, classifying it as high sulfate and high organic wastewater. Additionally, the calcium ion concentration is 100 mg / L, the magnesium ion concentration is 100 mg / L, the total salt content is 14000 mg / L, the pH is 10, the wastewater flow rate is 20 t / h, the sulfate to chloride mass ratio is 2:1, and the organic matter in the wastewater is mainly neutral organic matter (uncharged).

[0077] The process route and implementation steps for treating high-sulfate organic wastewater in this embodiment are the same as in Example 1. Electrodialysis I and Electrodialysis II in the process route are the same as in Example 1, both being modified electrodialysis methods. The anion exchange membrane is a modified anion exchange membrane, and the cation exchange membrane is a general-purpose cation exchange membrane (Hefei Kaijie Polymer Co., Ltd., China, model CJ-MC-3). In the preparation of the modified anion exchange membrane, except that the linear polymer in step a is polyethylene, the β-cyclodextrin mass-volume concentration is 50 mg / mL, the volume ratio of chloromethyl ether to solvent in step b is 1.4:1, and the stirring reaction time is 12 h, everything else is the same as in Example 1.

[0078] The specific operating parameters for treating the high sulfate high organic wastewater are as follows:

[0079] The wastewater first enters a softening adjusting tank, and a descaling agent is added according to a sodium hydroxide mass concentration of 200 mg / L and a sodium carbonate mass concentration of 200 mg / L, and sulfuric acid is added to adjust the pH to 7.5. After clarification, the supernatant calcium ion concentration is reduced to below 8 mg / L, and the magnesium ion concentration is reduced to below 6 mg / L. The effluent enters the electrodialysis I; the treatment time of the electrodialysis I is 1.1 h, and the current density is 28 mA / cm 2 After treatment, the dilute liquid in the electrodialysis I has a COD concentration of 2052 mg / L, a salt content of 2925 mg / L, a flow rate of 14 t / h, a concentrated liquid COD concentration of 210 mg / L, a salt content of 39841 mg / L, a flow rate of 6 t / h, a sulfate ion selective permeation rate of 81.5%, a chloride ion selective permeation rate of 87.8%, and an organic matter interception rate of 95.7%; the dilute liquid of the electrodialysis I enters a two-stage biochemical unit, a primary biochemical process adopts an A / O process, and a secondary biochemical process adopts a BAF process. Since the salt content is moderate, conventional activated sludge is added, the A / O process has a residence time of 40 h, the BAF process has a residence time of 15 h, the final effluent has a COD concentration of 56 mg / L and a salt content of 2945 mg / L, which meets the reuse standard and enters a reuse tank; the electrodialysis concentrated liquid enters an ozone catalytic oxidation unit, the ozone addition concentration is 120 mg / L, the reaction time is 30 min, the effluent COD is 115 mg / L, and the effluent is filtered by a tubular microfiltration and then enters a medium-high pressure reverse osmosis unit.

[0080] The medium-high pressure reverse osmosis operating pressure is between 3 and 4.2 Mpa. After concentration, the concentrated water salt content is close to 90 g / L, and the concentration ratio is 2.3. The medium-high pressure reverse osmosis produced water salt content is 3-12 g / L, which enters a low pressure reverse osmosis. The low pressure reverse osmosis is a primary process, the operating pressure is 1.5 Mpa, the water production rate is 68%, the concentrated water salt content is greater than 10 g / L, and the COD is higher than 60 mg / L, which is returned to the ozone catalytic oxidation unit for secondary treatment. The low pressure reverse osmosis produced water COD is lower than 60 mg / L, the salt content is lower than 2500 mg / L, which meets the reuse requirements. The medium-high pressure reverse osmosis concentrated water enters the electrodialysis II. The medium-high pressure reverse osmosis concentrated water salt content is about 90 g / L, and the COD is 250 mg / L. The electrodialysis II treatment time is 1.2 h, and the current density is 28 mA / cm 2, the salt content of the concentrated solution of the electro-dialysis II is about 190 g / L, the COD is 45 mg / L, the water volume of the concentrated solution accounts for 38% of the total water volume of the influent, the salt content of the diluted solution is about 29 g / L, the COD is 375 mg / L, and the water volume of the diluted solution accounts for 62% of the total water volume of the influent; the diluted solution of the electro-dialysis II enters a biological reactor, an MBR process is adopted, salt-tolerant bacteria are added, the salt-tolerant bacteria GXNYJ-DL-1 disclosed in the patent CN114686391A are selected, the preservation number is CGMCC No. 20350, the residence time is 9 h, the effluent COD is as low as 80 mg / L, the effluent is treated by low-pressure reverse osmosis again, the COD is less than 40 mg / L, the salt content is less than 2500 mg / L at the same time, and the requirements for recycling are met.

[0081] The concentrated solution of the electro-dialysis II enters a freezing crystallizer, the temperature is controlled at 5℃, sodium sulfate decahydrate is precipitated due to the reduction of solubility, the product purity is 99.3%, the sodium chloride concentration in the remaining mother liquor is about 155 g / L and is in a dissolved state, and the sodium sulfate concentration in the remaining mother liquor is about 52 g / L; the effluent of the freezing crystallizer enters a nanofiltration unit, the nanofiltration water yield is 65%, the sodium sulfate concentration in the nanofiltration water is about 3 g / L, the sodium chloride concentration is about 190 g / L, and the COD is about 135 mg / L; the nanofiltration water enters a salt crystallizer, the sodium sulfate concentration in the nanofiltration concentrated water is about 143 g / L, the sodium chloride concentration is about 90 g / L, and the COD is about 260 mg / L; the nanofiltration concentrated water returns to the electro-dialysis II for secondary treatment; the salt crystallizer is controlled at a temperature of 48℃, and sodium chloride with a purity of 99.5% is obtained by crystallization; when the mother liquor is concentrated to a sodium sulfate mass concentration of 300 g / L, the concentrated mother liquor returns to the electro-dialysis II for secondary treatment without affecting the product purity.

[0082] It can be seen from the embodiment that the application can effectively treat high-sulfate organic wastewater with different concentrations, the wastewater finally achieves zero discharge, and high-purity sodium chloride and sodium sulfate decahydrate are prepared. The overall process route has mild operating conditions, simple operation, and low energy consumption.

[0083] Comparative Example 1

[0084] The wastewater treated in Comparative Example 1 has the same water quality as that in Example 2, the process route and implementation steps are also the same as those in Example 2, and the difference is that the anion exchange membrane and the cation exchange membrane of the electro-dialysis I are both general type membranes and are not modified, the anion exchange membrane is a product of Asahi Glass Company, Japan (SELEMION AMV), and the cation exchange membrane is a product of Hefei Kaitai Polymer Co., Ltd., China (model CJ-MC-3).

[0085] Specifically, the wastewater first enters a softening adjustment tank, the adding amount of sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate is the same as that in Example 2, and the effluent enters the ordinary electro-dialysis I; the treatment time of the ordinary electro-dialysis I is 1.1 h, the current density is 28 mA / cm 2, the desalination liquid COD concentration in the post-treatment electrodialysis was 1732 mg / L, the salt content was 5511 mg / L, the flow rate was 14 t / h, the concentrated liquid COD concentration was 957 mg / L, the salt content was 33807 mg / L, the flow rate was 6 t / h, the sulfate ion selective permeability was 68.5%, and the chloride ion selective permeability was 75.4%, which was obviously decreased compared with Example 2, and the membrane flux was obviously decreased, which might be related to membrane clogging. In addition, the organic matter retention rate was reduced to 80.8%, indicating that a large amount of negatively charged organic matter passed through the anion membrane, increasing the possibility of membrane clogging; the desalination liquid after the first-stage electrodialysis I treatment entered a two-stage biochemical unit, the first-stage biochemical treatment adopted A / O process, the second-stage biochemical treatment adopted BAF process, and conventional activated sludge was added, the A / O process residence time was 40 h, the BAF process residence time was 15 h, the final effluent COD concentration was 565 mg / L, and the salt content was 5425 mg / L, which did not reach the reuse standard, and the analysis showed that the high salt concentration led to poor biochemical effect; at the same time, the concentrated liquid of the electrodialysis I entered an ozone catalytic oxidation unit, the ozone addition concentration was 120 mg / L, the reaction time was 30 min, the effluent COD was 795 mg / L, and the effluent was filtered through a tubular microfiltration and then entered a medium-high pressure reverse osmosis unit, and due to the high COD concentration, the reverse osmosis unit was seriously clogged.

[0086] From the present comparative example, it can be seen that the electrodialysis I adopts unmodified cation and anion exchange membranes, which cannot effectively separate organic matter and salt, thereby leading to high salt content in the biochemical unit, and the wastewater cannot be treated to reach the reuse standard, and the organic matter concentration in the concentration unit is too high, and the salt concentration section and the salt separation section cannot normally operate.

[0087] Comparative Example 2

[0088] Comparative Example 2

[0089] Specifically, the wastewater was pretreated and concentrated, and then the high-pressure reverse osmosis unit concentrated water entered the electrodialysis II, the medium-high pressure reverse osmosis concentrated water salt content was about 90 g / L, and the COD was 250 mg / L; the electrodialysis II treatment time was 1.2 h, the current density was 28 mA / cm 2, the salt content of the concentrated solution of the electro-dialysis II is about 163 g / L, the COD is 150 mg / L, the water volume of the concentrated solution accounts for 38% of the total water volume of the inlet water, the salt content of the diluting solution is about 45 g / L, the COD is 311 mg / L, and the water volume of the diluting solution accounts for 62% of the total water volume of the inlet water; the diluting solution of the electro-dialysis II enters the biological reactor, the MBR process is adopted, the salt-tolerant bacteria are added, the salt-tolerant bacteria GXNYJ-DL-1 disclosed in the patent CN114686391A is selected, the preservation number is CGMCC No. 20350, the residence time is 9 h, the COD of the effluent water is as low as 70 mg / L, and the effluent water enters the low-pressure reverse osmosis; the water production rate of the low-pressure reverse osmosis is 68%, the COD of the effluent water of the low-pressure reverse osmosis is less than 40 mg / L, and the salt content is 3670 mg / L; the general industrial water such as circulating water requires that the salt content is less than 3000 mg / L, and therefore the effluent water of the reverse osmosis cannot meet the recycling requirements; the salt content of the concentrated solution of the electro-dialysis II is relatively low, the COD is relatively high, and finally the crystallization efficiency of the subsequent process is reduced, the purity of the sodium sulfate decahydrate is reduced to 98.4%, and the purity of the sodium chloride is reduced to 98.6%.

[0090] It can be known from the present comparative example that the electro-dialysis II adopts the unmodified cation and anion exchange membranes, the separation ability of the cation and anion exchange membranes for organic matters and salt is poor, and the anion exchange membrane is easily polluted by the organic matters, so that the diluting solution is difficult to be treated to meet the recycling requirements, and the purity of the sodium sulfate decahydrate and the sodium chloride prepared from the concentrated solution is reduced.
